wywialm: thanks for the info
fluffypony: but the card is in their name
fluffypony: wywialm you have to verify your account with ANX
fluffypony: this was just for fun and to have something lying around that I can load BTC on to and swipe if I really want to
fluffypony: punkman: I didn't realise that it was provided by mBank
punkman: fluffypony: if you already had an account with them, what's the benefit of the anx card?
BingoBoingo: Oh, the things Jimmothy posts when he isn't persecuting mircea_popescu for being European https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=521520.msg8507845#msg8507845
wywialm: I know that mBank is Polish :) however, is it official that mBank backs this ANX card?
fluffypony: wywialm: I actually have an account with them from a couple of years back, they're Polish
wywialm: fluffypony, is there any info on the mBank backing the ANX card?
RagnarDanneskjol: ANX is good people. I know them personally. I'm pissed someone else got their card before me
punkman: interesting "When a buy or sell order is submitted, the ANXBTC platform receives matching orders from an extensive number of buyers and sellers who have registered as part of the ANX Open Dealer Network. "

fluffypony: plus they posted me a letter with a code to confirm my address on file
punkman: also, is their exchange any good?
punkman: fluffypony: how much paperwork did it take?
mircea_popescu: apparently they took out her largest part.
mircea_popescu: In 1933, Bankhead nearly died following a five-hour emergency hysterectomy due to venereal disease. Only 70 pounds (32 kg) when she left the hospital, she stoically said to her doctor, "Don't think this has taught me a lesson!"

mircea_popescu: now why do i think "all about eve";s margo is drawn after bankhead ?
mircea_popescu: Once, while in attendance at a party, a guest made a comment about rape, and Bankhead reportedly replied, "I was raped in our driveway when I was eleven. You know darling, it was a terrible experience because we had all that gravel."
mircea_popescu: fun fact re the old stork : milton berle was banned there. along with bogart.
mircea_popescu: An organist playing old Stork had a prick that could hold a small fork, and between obbligatos he'd munch on tomatoes to keep up his strength while at work.
BingoBoingo: Ah allegedly I myself into trouble all the time
Niko__: someone who has enough knowledge to himself in trouble
BingoBoingo: Oh, that part of the problem
mircea_popescu: you don't understand how the government works. it'll never pay you to do something you're already interested in.
mircea_popescu: how could they possibly trust you ?
BingoBoingo still has yet to recieve spam from the SEC/CIA/NSA/DHS/DEA/NYDSFMOGWTFBBQ asking him to read Trilema for them...
assbot: Logged on 23-08-2014 19:26:23; BlueMeanie4: hey if the mod is going to silence me for no voiced reason mid conversation- why bother?
mircea_popescu: the log is so self referrential omfg. first there's http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=23-08-2014#806551 then there's http://log.bitcoin-assets.com/?date=23-08-2014#806604 sometimes it feels like it just works on its own. ☝︎☝︎
BingoBoingo: "In net opposition to this bizarre and at least in appearance sick model of social organization, the harem shows some clear advantages."
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: exponentially difficult << 'learn' for translating a diplomat - perhaps hard; reading articles in your armchair slowly - not so hard << the diplomat in question doth protest.
mircea_popescu: the point being that while you're welcome to disagree in practice, your doing so is arbitrariety not reason.
mircea_popescu: so, "the ideal treatment of one does not differ from the other for reasons that are derived from prime principles".
mircea_popescu: "nu exista in principiu" means there doesnt exist (nu exista) for absolute reasons (in principiu, roughly, following from principle, for reasons derived from prime principles)
mircea_popescu: Nu exista in principiu o diferenta de tratament ideal < tratament ideal is, "ideal treatment", in the sense of normative, prescriptive treatment.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo you got most of it flawlessly, but the intro is a bitch
mircea_popescu: o wow look at this poor bluemeanie dude, he loves me all over the log then i come in and am like all mean to him.
BingoBoingo: "There is no principle difference between the ideal treatment for slaves captured in war and of children born in traditional families, both are people chained to their captors by some imagined debt, of which they personally have not acquiesced." << Interesting, if this is a roughly worthwhile translation.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform: re: nail polish poison detector << how many cases of dysentery from the finger dips. << i would imagine you dribble rather than dip.
mircea_popescu: the best construction i can put on it is, "hey, the whiteknighting virgin geeks have finally found a way to express their usual "a guy that really loves and respects you and cares" derpage into bitcoin form"
mircea_popescu: Apocalyptic: I'm amazed at the trust people put into PoS, but then again after seeing the investment section of bitcointalk it isn't that surprising << makes two of us.

abathingape: homework in america for colleges is becoming pay to use,
mircea_popescu: well dangerous, but this is a good thing.
mircea_popescu: Thus, the altcoin communities are not just embarrassing, but dangerous. Desperately wishing to be taken seriously despite having nothing worthwhile to offer, they will say absolutely anything to convince other people to join them. They persist in saying things easily refuted by economic logic, common sense, or verifiable facts.
mircea_popescu: hey have developed a series of fallacies capable of fooling newcomers into joining them, but they are all disingenuous.
mircea_popescu: more a function of what had been on tv that week / what the person picked up from google finance.
BingoBoingo: Back then it didn't much matter what people called their own things as those labels were rarely accurate
mircea_popescu: well obviously everything will be surrounded by a bunch of tims.
mircea_popescu: "The Bitcoin community is not just overwhelmingly larger but of overwhelmingly better quality as well. Bitcoin is surrounded by real entrepreneurs working hard to create new and useful services for Bitcoin. Altcoins are surrounded by loud-mouthed pretenders with irrational hopes of duplicating Nakamoto's success."
mircea_popescu: yeah something like that.
BingoBoingo: Mining, a bond? Twas before I really started taking notes.
BingoBoingo: I don't think he's been on since public logs
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo lol the past! "Sep 04 22:37:31 * ciuciu (~chatzilla@96.127.204.194) has joined #bitcoin-assets"
fluffypony: it's different when you're out there and active and not staring at a screen all day
fluffypony: Otter Trail 10 day hike was fine
fluffypony: when I go hiking I don't take coffee with
mircea_popescu: fluffypony i'm curious what you'd be like if there was no coffee for a week or two.
mircea_popescu: ben_vulpes re your article, there was at least another scam derpopoulous pushed. can't seem to recall wtf it was tho.
mircea_popescu: ;;later tell jborkl http://www.bcoinnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/sharkbite-300x187.jpg << you know those bitcoin vignettes added on pictures would look a lot better if they were on transparent background.

pete_dushenski: mircea_popescu: maximizing the market is not a valid goal of economics any more than maximizing body weight is not a valid goal of medicine. << lulz
asciilifeform: presumably not counting the degenerate cases (e.g. private keys) ?
mircea_popescu: "Your content isn't worth much to begin with if it goes down in value as it gets shared." this is an interesting concept.
asciilifeform had some very entertaining conversations with the fellow about peculiarities of american law, as practiced
asciilifeform: though, afaik, not the variety that argues cases.
mircea_popescu: apparently cat thinks you're developing nicely.
ThickAsThieves: my cat just brought my wife's sports bra to me from across the house, waddling its front legs as it dragged in front in its mouth
mircea_popescu: "This was well-crafted malware that antivirus programs couldn't detect. It was a very sophisticated attack," Wahab added. << "it didn't come with a warning box to click on"
cazalla: ThickAsThieves: cazalla, is it fibromyalgia? >> I've been told it's somatization but i don't know tbh, i've exhausted whatever medical investigation i've been sent for, cardiologist said whatever it is, not my heart, neuro said whatever it is, not neurological, never tried cannabis for it, doesn't agree with me anyway so not an option
mircea_popescu: well in that case...
